Chelan County Parcel Search: County GIS Parcel Viewer and Assessor Property Search
A Chelan County parcel search works best as a two-step job: find the lot in the Chelan County GIS parcel viewer, then open the record in the Assessor’s Parcel and Sale Search. Here is what each tool searches by and how to reach the tax side.

The Chelan County GIS parcel viewer
Chelan County GIS is the county’s interactive map. Its search box accepts a parcel number, PID, owner or address, and results can be listed in an attribute table below the map. Use it to confirm where a lot sits, what surrounds it, and which parcel number you actually need before opening records.
Assessor Parcel and Sale Search
The Assessor’s Parcel and Sale Search opens after you read and accept a disclaimer. The page cites RCW 42.56.070(9), which bars using lists of individuals for commercial purposes. The property search behind it offers these search types:
- Owner Name
- Property Address
- Account Number
- Doing Business As (DBA)
- Property ID
- Geographic ID (the geo parcel number)
An appraisal-year selector lets you view older years, and a separate Sales Search covers transfers. When we checked, the page showed its database had been updated early that morning.
Chelan County parcel search for taxes
The Treasurer has its own Parcel Search and Tax Payments page, again behind a disclaimer, which leads to tax amounts and online payment. Use the same parcel or account number you found in the Assessor search.
Deeds and other records
Recorded documents are searched through the county’s document search. The Assessor’s pages also link a Property Owner’s Guide. For the county’s orchards, river frontage and lake property, our Chelan County GIS parcel map guide covers the local background.
If the Chelan parcel viewer is down
If the GIS map will not load, go straight to the Assessor search, which runs on a separate system. If both are down, the Assessor’s office can answer by phone during business hours. Our directory entry is at Chelan County in our Washington directory.
More Washington parcel viewers
Platbookmapper keeps a free, county-by-county directory of official parcel viewers and county GIS maps across the United States. The Washington county GIS page lists every county in the state. If you research land in more than one county, start at the all-states directory or pick a county on the national parcel map, and you will land on the official viewer instead of a data-broker copy.

Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey — especially for fences, setbacks, or boundary disputes.
